Dance school expands to meet demand

Leanne MacVeigh Dance Academy in Alford, Aberdeenshire has converted industrial units into a purpose-built studio with a £37,000 match loan and the savings of its owner, Leanne MacKay. MacKay said she had been struggling to grow the school because of the cost of hiring village halls for classes: "I am now able to add the additional classes for the children who have been on waiting lists."
